I just can't seem to say NO.
They are scattered about the porches, in the garden, in the kitchen, and generally all over.
Some of them are well-used by expectant parents returning year after year, to raise their young. Others just for decoration.
The First Sergeant is looking forward to retirement days, he has birdhouse-building plans in mind, to idle away the hours.
As 'Martha' would say....."It's a good thing."

Your collection of birdhouses is wonderful. I have a few of my own but I don't think they compare to yours. The gourd is really adorable.

Oh Jo, I love them too.... ALL of your pictures are tremendous!!!!! But---I guess I'm partial to the first one, the church... I absolutely love that one the most.
Thanks for sharing... I hope your hubby will make some someday.

What a delightful variety of birdhouses! My favorite is the cottage gourd.
A previous owner here used one simple pattern for numerous birdhouses, painted the same with red fronts and blue-green sides. They peek out from many tree trunks and are such a delightful sight. We have made more by the same pattern and have repaired the old ones.
Hugs!

What a beautiful collection!! I love them, and they remind me that I should and need to do something with the ones I have packed away.
I'm very impressed with your birdhouse collection. You have some beautiful houses for the bird families.
Cool bird houses.
